Dop December 2008, Auckland softcover What better way to celebrate the holidays than with lovable Mrs Wishy-Washy and her barnyard clan? Joy Cowley and Elizabeth Fuller have brought all our favourite characters back in this wonderfully warm and sudsy story just right to celebrate the spirit of Christmas. Just because it's Christmas it doesn't mean Mrs Wishy-Washy's farm animals can go without a good scrub. In fact, she says, 'Scrub yourselves from foot to head...or there'll be no presents for you this year!' But it's so cold in the old red barn. They'll shiver and shake and turn to ice! Duck knows a better bath - where there's warm water, pink bubbles and fluffy towels - but if Mrs Wishy-Washy finds out, they can kiss their presents good-bye! First published 2005.
